Do we work for the same company? Exactly same story here. Also just botched the Oracle to Aurora migration.

I don’t know, so I can only guess.

The desalination plant could have been there already, because for whatever reason it was more practical (or even required) than taking the water from the river.

Or maybe the desalination plant requires very little power, maybe less than what the osmotic plant produces.

Or the whole thing is indeed energy negative, but not as energy negative as having just the desalination plant. So at least they get to use the brine from the desalination to recoup some of the energy. Because the osmotic plant is power positive.

It’s easier to understand with a picture of the process:

It’s not energy negative. Osmosis doesn’t require any energy input. You only need to pump water to the plant,but the harvested power from the pressurized water exceeds the required pumping power. Freshwater and saltwater are freely available. Using the concentrated brine from a desalination plant only increases the efficiency.

What happened? I also worked with the JIRA API (on-prem tho), and didn’t run into bigger troubles.

The only thing I really dislike is the “discovery” process. I don’t have much to compare it to, but going through /createmeta/ and what keys are allowed/work or not and how to get to the correct service, and what data is shown or not. Maybe I did it wrong.

I like to imagine that anyone who works at the FBI, and has the opportunity, would try lying at the polygraph for fun.

No. It’s complicated. There are new scanners, which are supposed to detect and identify fluids, and we’re supposed to lead to a removal of the fluid restrictions. But now there’s claims they are not good as expected.

So yeah, new scanners, but sometimes with restrictions in place and sometimes not. And if the whole airport (or just the security check point you end up at) doesn’t have the new scanner… then of course the restriction is definitely in place.

Source: airport nearby has a mix of old and new scanners.

There is a science or food YouTuber out there who’d be really excited to try this, if only they read your idea.

People who know programming already, yes. People who are getting into it / want to get into it, see it as an amazing shortcut.

I had two working students already, who thought and communicated that they don’t really need to learn programming, because they can do it with ChatGPT / Q. It was quite infuriating.

I was so hyped when I saw the trailers, because the visuals and ideas of the story they showcased were exactly my jam. But oh boy, what a dumpster fire the whole movie turned out to be.

Edit: yep, still goosebumps watching the trailer

You are indeed correct. A higher card “sticht” (=beats) a lower cards.

Of course those people existed before, and were just as evil as they are now. But before Trump they didn’t get to act on their evil traits. With him on top, and more and more like minded in top positions, they can finally act with impunity. They don’t need to fear consequences anymore. And that is absolutely related to Trump. So fuck Trump.

Someone moving out of the way still doesn’t equal everyone moving out of the way. He’s way ahead of them at the end of the video. The point still stands.

Really. Japanese society has a lot of issues on its own, but there’s also a lot to learn from them.

IF Trump is an asset, those billionaires might find out that they are not quite as untouchable as they think. Because that’s how Putin consolidated power in Russia. He sent the richest and most powerful oligarch at the time to a show trial and labor camp.

French electricity leaves the chat in summer when their plants need to be shut down because the rivers are too warm or don’t carry enough water in the first place. And that’s nothing to say what they will do in the next decade years when a good portion of their reactors should be commissioned out.

Given the sub I expected it to be your porn collection. But the text suggests you’re serious.

Sad

And it’s only a matter of time until until he boasts about it by posting someone’s SN during an petty online argument.

2022: Deaths by Accidents (unintentional injuries): 227,039 source

Deaths by murder and nonnegligent manslaughter: 21,781 source

While I didn’t find 2022 numbers for the male to female ratio, in 2023 it was 13,789 to 3,849… source

If you’re uninformed maybe hold back with accusations.

Thank you so much for the comprehensive explanation,includong the edit.

Coincidentally I discovered kwriteconfig by myself yesterday - but not the interaction with qdbus.

Thanks. I’ll have a look later, and will try to understand.
